FORT MYERS, FL '" Junior guard Candy Myers scored a career-high 27 points to lead Florida Gulf Coast University to a 97-60 rout of Western New Mexico University in women'â„¢s basketball action at Alico Arena Saturday evening.

Myers, who has hit a three-pointer in 33 consecutive games, tied the school record with seven three-pointers for the third time this season. Trish Fleming ('â„¢03) is the only other Eagles player to make seven in a game. FGCU senior forward Andrea Clarke (Guelph, Ontario) added 21 points and 10 rebounds for her second straight double-double and fourth of the season. Clarke is now 20 points short of breaking the school'â„¢s all-time scoring record of 675 points Junior forward Alex Kwiecinska (Mississauga, Ontario) also posted a double-double, scoring 13 points and grabbing 10 boards. Junior guard Megan Jones (Indianapolis, IN) was the other FGCU player in double figures, chipping in 11 points. FGCU (18-8) controlled the game throughout, leading by 21 at the break 53-45.
